Shaquille O’Neal, probably thinking about how much he loves FitBit. Shaquille O’Neal: star of basketball, that weird movie Kazaam and also, according to SXSW, the world of wearable tech. Shaq sat down at the Austin Convention Center yesterday for a conversation with Qualcomm’s Rick Valencia about wearables. Shaq isn’t currently working on his own line of wearables or anything — he’s basically just a guy who really likes to use Fitbit, and whose kids think Google Glass is pretty cool. To begin the talk, Mr. Valencia said he wanted to explore “Shaq’s plan to dominate the wearable space like he dominates everything else.”
